Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 453 Picked Me Up From Work

He told me that he wanted to come after me after Michael took me away. Unfortunately, his car was too slow, and the latter left him in the dust. That was why he didn’t know where I was.

Nicholas’ eyes shone with disappointment when he said those words. He dropped by my office that early in the morning to wait for me and have that conversation. To my surprise, he wasn’t there to tell me to keep my professional and personal life apart. Instead, he was there because he had feelings for me.

The way he redirected the conversation and talked about something personal… I shifted my gaze awkwardly to look elsewhere. Thing was, I knew how he felt about me, but there was nothing I could do about it.

I’ve already made things clear in the past, so I didn’t want to dwell on that topic again.

“I understand. I don’t want to talk about personal matters, though. We’re at work, and our jobs are the most important thing right now. I will, however, promise you it wouldn’t matter what happens between Michael and me. My loyalty to the company is absolute, and I won’t do anything to hurt you or the company.”

That was the only promise I could offer. If he wanted me to love him back… Well, that would be impossible.

He knew what I meant, and he frowned. The silver lining was that he didn’t keep that conversation going, so I sighed a long breath of relief.

“Okay, then we won’t talk about this at work. Let’s discuss the matter some other time. Still, I pray you’d keep my previous words in mind because I do not wish for the same thing to happen again.”

He shifted his gaze from me and sounded calm when he said those words, but the fact he was warning me was clear as day.

“Understood.”

I replied nonchalantly, before shutting up entirely.

I couldn’t make that promise firmly because I didn’t know if I could cut all ties with Michael right away. That morning, I agreed to Michael’s terms, and I couldn’t back out of it anymore.
